    About this ebook

    Agnes and Eleanor are ecstatic when Eleanor wins a Las Vegas vacation for both couples at the end of their cruise. It’s like another honeymoon with their men Andrew and Mr. Wilson, except the senior sleuths once again find themselves in the middle of a murder investigation. This time the victim is Malcolm Banktop, the manager of the pop star Kayla White, who is found dead in an elevator.

    Kayla has a residency at Caesars Palace and is so lost without Malcolm that she hires Agnes and Eleanor to find his killer. Things become complicated when Kayla’s bodyguard Mark is considered a suspect. Sure, Mark might have spent time in prison, but is that reason enough to suspect him of murder?

    Eleanor and Agnes have their hands full once again amongst the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas, which becomes even more outrageous with the sleuths in town as they search for the truth.

      With the growth of the senior population I wanted to find a new cozy sleuth in this category. While the plot kept my interest I thought the depictment of seniors was too forcedly funny.
    • 5/5
      First, this is a spoof. So of course, much of the humor is over-the-top. That being said, be careful not to eat or drink while listening to this one, or you will need to keep a towel handy (or someone who knows how to do the Heimlich). Yes, some of the parts relating to the murders, and the dangers that Agnes gets into are quite disturbing, and unless you have had a 93 year old female relative who rode around in her truck with a shotgun mounted for easy release to provide "instant roadkill", you might find some of the situations wholly improbable. But I did have that relative, so all I had to do was imagine her and LMFAO! No plot recap, that was done by publisher, but expect lots of plot twists. Enjoy this mystery for the fun that it is, and don't expect Nero Wolfe or Kinsey Milhone.Toni gives a great performance, and with seeming ease, she differentiates each of the characters (and they certainly are!) and adds to their personalities.Purchased on the cheap courtesy of BookGorilla

      This is a wonderful, fun read! I’ve never read a book from the perspective of a seventy-two year old woman. The book is written in first person. A style that only a very good writer can make believable, and Madison Johns does a very good job of it.

      Agnes is a spunky gal that’s for sure. Her best friend Eleanor is just as bad at eighty-two. These two ladies shouldn’t be allowed out in public, but whose supposed to stop them. The local and state police sure can’t. Agnes’s tenacity to solve the towns missing person epidemic borders on fanatical. Nothing is going to get in her way. Especially when the newest disappearance might help her to find her own granddaughter, missing for a year now. The similarities in the cases between the two women are too uncanny for it to be a mere coincidence.

      This book has a lot going on with the solving of its mysteries, but also a flair for the local mentality of a small, tightly knit town. Some of the instances border on hilarious. I will definitely read another book from this author. Especially, if it’s a continuation with these two senior citizens. I really liked this book!

      To those who would like to know, I found the lead to this book on Twitter.
